Article attached just shows how big the Bakken is, two points i will add
1. The article does highlight the fact that success in the Nio is not a given, though this does reinforce TB's approach to our drilling program there. Complex structure's require a detailed approach which unfortunately / fortunately other co's have chosen not to do hence we retain the hot spots with the brains trust behind us. Having said that, success has been achieved, so there's no doubt oil is down there and as said before Defender's early analysis is very encouraging. DVN must be like minded and approaching this area with some research too.
2. The Bakken Oil play is extensive and our next stop Fort Peck Montana has to be very high on excitement list, let's not forget the Three Forks formation beneath the Bakken too.
Note: from TB"S recent CA "ROOSEVELT PROJECT.......rig has concluded its current well and has been released; it has undergone a period of maintenance and is set to arrive on the Australia II well site on Wednesday, November 2....
So SSN must now be underway in both WY & MT, looking forward to the next CA
